An obscure previous block

Hi Izno. You know how sometimes an old block can turn up again like a bad meal? I was reviewing Special:Diff/1267232330 at EFFPP, and couldn't help but notice that the last time this filter struck in this way was with RickRolled76 - obviously related. That doesn't look like an excellent block to me. Further, I notice that it was reported at AIV here. I'd recommend viewing the CU log (and related) for this IP - it's notorious for poor AIV reports. Could you revisit this block to undo any potential complications with the current account? Thanks. -- zzuuzz ^(talk) 05:11, 5 January 2025 (UTC)

That block does look bad, yes. Unblocked shortly. Izno (talk) 19:29, 5 January 2025 (UTC)

Query

Hello, Izno,

I was just wondering about your block of the very new account Moopaz. For two day old account, they seemed to know a lot about editing on the project but their edits didn't seem that promotional to me. Did you think they were a sock or a paid editor? Thanks for any additional information you can offer. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 23:13, 7 January 2025 (UTC)

@Liz, we have at least one sock group running around lately that will do that kind of AFD editing with a clear spread of topics otherwise (all BLPs though). The editing is a UPE tactic to appear legitimate before attempting to save target topics of their own. I couldn't pin the Moopaz account directly to an existing sock farm technically but they had a confirmed sock doing the same thing at Wagdar, so I issued the promo block. It would have been a sock block if I could point to the exact SPI where I've had to go over the same behavior. There is in fact a filter tracking this behavior now (see Moopaz's filter log), so it ended up at AIV via bot report, which is how I found it. Izno (talk) 23:25, 7 January 2025 (UTC)

Hello Izno, I need your help

Hi @Izno, We have interacted before.

1) I am a good faith editor whose start on Wikipedia might have been not that good but I am getting better and now editing the space in good faith.

2) The enforcement started as a retaliation as mentioned by me in the discussion here.

3) I have edited on Wikipedia and in the past month, we can not find a single instance where I indulged in vandalism or POV pushes as mentioned in the enforcement.

I request you to Kindly share your opinion in the discussion.

Note: I am currently undergoing my semester exams in university till 15th jan, might not respond swiftly. I respect your fair-mindedness and have a good faith that you will take side of Justice.

Thank You ! PPicazHist (talk) 07:56, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

Sockpuppetery?

Just my luck, it looks like I have found yet another instance of sockpuppetry. [1]vs [2], [3]vs [4] HyperShark244 (talk) 03:12, 14 January 2025 (UTC)

Yup. I'll file a pro forma SPI shortly. Izno (talk) 03:18, 14 January 2025 (UTC)

AIV request -- whoops!

Let's not talk about how I didn't notice the username was incorrectly capitalized.... my phone was on black and white mode and it's been a long day. :P

On a serious note, thanks for all you do for the wiki, your prompt processing of vandalism requests is greatly appreciated. Doawk7 (talk) 07:13, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

StateoftheUnionStrong

Hi, you (correctly) blocked this user. Just a heads-up that they also made many edits logged out as 73.210.30.217. Fram (talk) 08:31, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
